About this property

Villa Abejita in Playa Negra: Pool, AC, Close to Beach, WiFi, Spacious, Private

New to VRBO!
Villa Abejita has plenty of room for family and friends. A large gated property with pool, air conditioning in all bedrooms, lovely garden, covered outdoor dining, workspaces, and wifi. Tropical birds, sloths, and iguanas frequently stop by within the garden walls. It's a 5-minute walk to the black sands and warm waters of Playa Negra. A small grocery store and boutique hotel with restaurant and beach bar are nearby. Shops and dining in Puerto Viejo are just 10 minutes by car or tuktuk, or shed your shoes and take a stunning half-hour walk along the water to town!

This house is very homelike. We live here several months each year, and we love it!

The living room and kitchen share a large open space with vaulted ceilings and ceiling fans. The huge kitchen island has lots of counter space and a counter seating area, so several people can cook and gather at once. We love to cook, so the kitchen is well-equipped with everything you'll need to prepare meals, including cooking oil and spices. Just outside the kitchen door is a covered patio with a gas grill, an outdoor sink, and a large table and chairs for outdoor dining.

There are two workstations in one of the bedrooms, and an additional tall desk that folds out into a standing workstation. We have 50 mb satellite wifi, perfect for digital nomads. Each of our four routers has an uninterruptable power supply in case the electricity goes out (which it does sometimes, for a few minutes--it's the Caribbean!). The smaller workstation desk can be easily moved into a different room if desired.

The bedrooms have new, comfortable mattresses. Each bedroom has its own air conditioner and ceiling fan. Throughout the house, large windows let in plenty of natural light.

The pool is surrounded by a tiled deck, with three fountains cascading water into the pool. A spacious veranda abuts the pool.

We've taken measures to make the house more physically accessible. A concrete ramp leads up the side of the veranda, eliminating the need to climb steps to access the house. Doorways are wide, with no thresholds. Each shower contains a grab bar for added safety, and the bathroom attached to the primary bedroom has a grab bar next to the toilet.

We have secure, off-street parking for up to three vehicles.

The gorgeously landscaped grounds are fully enclosed by high walls, giving a feeling of tranquility, relaxation, and privacy. You'll have this whole space to yourself!

About the host

Hosted by Laurie Utterback

Host profile image
My name is Laurie, and my husband Darren and I fell deeply in love with this area on our first visit. An opportunity came up to buy this amazing house, and now we live here part of the year! It's a nice place to escape the winters in the Pacific Northwest of the US. :) We're so happy to be able to share our house with people who are looking for a beautiful place to relax and enjoy the wildlife, beach, and warm vibes of the Southern Caribbean.

Why they chose this property

We love this spot because it's a five-minute walk to the beach. You can hear the ocean from our house! It's nice to have a small grocery around the corner, and a restaurant for nights we don't feel like cooking. The neighborhood is a mix of residences and small hotels, and it's quiet and friendly here.

What makes this property unique

Our lush garden is a safe and peaceful place for sloths, iguanas, kinkajou, opossums, toucans, and other tropical birds to stop by.

The beach is close by, but the swimming pool is also right there for your own private swimming sessions. If you just want to cool down and relax, it has Baja benches on both ends for sitting with a beverage and chatting with friends.

This is one of the few properties in the area with an accessibility ramp from the parking area to the front door.
